My GGGrandparents were Joseph and Elizabeth Baur Wade. I have a copy of her 1912 obituary. She lived by Diona and I think she may be buried in a cemetery near there. In the 1850 census, it lists them in Hurricane, Cumberland with Nancy Jane, my GGrandmother who later married John Will Pearcy. Joseph died in 1858 and Elizabeth married James Higginbotham. Does anyone have them in their research?

Hi...this is my Wade family also. I have some branches down to current descendants, and some history.My line follows Joseph's brother John Henry Wade. Please let me know if you want more info. Thanks LEC

I'd love to share information with you. Mine is still somewhat sketchy - I just found out that my GGGrandmother's maiden name was Baugher, not Baur. That really opened up some inroads. Joseph and Elizabeth are buried at Bell Cemetery sw of Diona, as is James Higgenbotham. Please email me at diannastrainic7@yahoo.com - and I'll be happy to share what I have.

Hello, Elizabeth Baugher is the sister to John Baugher, and I am trying to unravel a few things about John Baugher who is the father of my gggrandmother, Emily Jane Baugher, and I am wondering if you can help me.

Emily ended up in Fall River, Greenwood County, Kansas. She passed along some family information that her mother was "Nancy," but I believe her biological mother was Sarah Owens Higginbotham who died when Emily was four or five, and I think John Baugher then married "Nancy," but I've never been 100% who this Nancy was. Is it Woolover or Woolever, and did this Nancy go on to marry William Linnabery, and if so did she marry him before or after John Will Pearcy??

In addition to marrying Joseph Higginbotham, did Elizabeth marry Joseph Vernon Wade first?
